Abstract

top
We provide upper bounds for the mean square integral ∫ X 2 X 𝔻 k ( x + h ) - 𝔻 k ( x ) 2 d x , where h = h ( X ) ≫ 1 , h = o ( x ) as X → ∞ and h lies in a suitable range. For k ≥ 2 a fixed integer, 𝔻 k ( x ) is the error term in the asymptotic formula for the summatory function of the divisor function d k ( n ) , generated by ζ k ( s ) .
